Threat to vacate the house due to family dispute for a property
19-Oct-2024 (In Property Law)
My grandfather's will gave two shares to my youngest uncle and one share each to his two other sons. Now, my youngest uncle is threatening to build a wall inside the house and forcing us to leave, even though we've lived here for over 40 years. The house has three floors, with each family occupying one."
Respected sir
It is important to know whether the built up floors were present at the time of the demise of your grandfather or they were built after that as you mention that he bequeathed 2 shares in favour of your youngest uncle, which favours you, as it seems to be a mutual agreement between the brothers to have 1 floor for each. Thirdly, you mention that you've been residing in that house for more than 40 years, which also favours you. But, in order to understand more, you may consult me in that regard.
if that property is ancestral property and your grandfather has not transferred that property with registered documents, you may file a partition suit and challenge the documents on which your uncles are relying on and the other point of threatening there you need to file a temporary injunction application immediately in court.
Hello, You haven’t mentioned the probate case filed after your grandfather’s passing. Alternatively, you can file a partition suit in the appropriate court to claim your rightful share. The sons of your grandfather will receive the portions specified in the will, or, in the absence of such clarity, through a partition suit. For further clarification and consultation kindly call.
